Walking Tall

Walker gives me Pat Williams vibes. That kid is something else.

OK, so not designing plays to get the absolute best weapon into space with ball in his hands isn’t an issue when your QB is struggling to find open guys with the other team bringing heat on him play after play isn’t an issue? Got it. Well, if you enjoyed the past two weeks you’re absolutely going to love it when the Chiefs come to town and bring blitzes from every look imaginable and our albatross wide receivers try to get open.

Cook: 5 targets, 5 catches for 58 yards in the Baltimore game. The next three weeks….8 targets, 7 catches for 31 yards. The last two weeks….1 target, 0 catches, 0 yards and an 0-2 record with those games being the worst offensive performances of the season. Draw your own conclusions.

Edmunds misdiagnosed plays at times and it was frustrating. But he at least gave this team a presence in the middle. Just with his wing span alone. Bernard really doesn’t.

At some point you need to take away the keys to the Lamborghini from your child because they failed to rotate the tires and change the oil. The child is Beane/McDermott. The Lamborghini is Allen. The dad is Pegula. Terry, be a parent, not a friend.

Correct. If Bishop made that tackle, which should have been easy, maybe the Falcons don’t even score and they game turns out different?

I don’t think it’s about his touches. I am more in line with you have to make the defense respect that James Cook may be getting the ball. That may have been enough to freeze defenders on those two miserable short yardage plays they failed on tonight…..well, at least one. The Bills can’t even successfully run a jet sweep no matter who is on the field.

Ja’Marcus Ingram must be real bad because there is no excuse for White to still be out there. Funny thing is….I thought Ingram showed well last season. Shows how much I know.

Bernard is proving to be too small and too slow. The guy has a hell of an IQ…..but so did Einstein and he wasn’t suited to play LB in the NFL.

Strong comeback. 🙄 Remember that play when Allen rolled to his left to evade pressure….and kept looking and scanning the field for a good 5 to 7 seconds before he had to run. Nobody could get open. That was screaming for a huge play but his receivers couldn’t oblige.

When receivers are not getting any separation, ultimately that will lend itself to forcing a ball or two a game. No matter who the QB.

Agreed and it’s pathetic. It’s almost like they forgot that 4th down play in KC last year when he willed his way into the endzone. Something is going on and it isn’t good.

Yep. Have they had even one designed short pass to get Cook into space this season?

How about on 3rd and 4th and short yardage plays in critical spots? He wasn’t out there and that is ridiculous. He was having a hell of a second half when they gave him the ball. Those should be running downs with our offensive line. Cook doesn’t need to block.

The Bills looked unstoppable against the Ravens, Dolphins and Saints?

As far as changes go I wouldn’t make any in the front office or coaches. I’d save that for the end of the season if needed. Player-wise, Bernard gets benched. He’s too small and slow to diagnose running plays. He is constantly just out of reach of making plays. That is a sign of not being adequate. Tre White should also be shown the bench. Jordan Poyer, though he is slow, has some great instincts. I’d get him on the field more spelling Cole Bishop. I’d look to trade for a wide receiver and safety.

Beane and McDermott are in sync with player personnel decisions. It’s on the both of them. Small, soft, slow and injury prone isn’t a good recipe on defense. Who would have thought that? Not to mention the draft capital and money they wasted on said players.

The Bills actually played better defense when the pint sized Bernard left the game.

I think it’s time to move on from both Beane and McDermott. These amount of money and draft capital spent on this defense is crazy. Make no mistake, those are Beane and McDermott’s type of players. Small, slow and soft. The defense actually played better in the second half without the smallish Bernard in the middle. Dungy was shown the door in Tampa and the Bucs won the Super Bowl the next season. I’d look to move on from both Beane and McDermott. Josh Allen has covered the warts of this team for a long time but those warts are getting larger by the year. The only problem is it scares the ***** out of me having Terry Pegula making any decisions.

See ya.

Remember when people thought Lindy Ruff and Darcy Regier were awesome…..but we had Dominik Hasek? I think we are seeing the same thing with the Bills.

The Falcons should have taken the points but they have no respect for our pass catchers tonight.

Was he horse collared?

It’s not our fault. The Buffalo Bills are a mediocre football team. We have a superstar in Allen, a damned good o-line,an excellent RB, pretty good tight ends….and that is it. The rest is sub par, dragging everything else down.

Not easy but Shakir needs to get that foot in.
